Comic-Con 2023: surviving the IDW whirlwind without getting comic shock (event news).
Good day, sci-fi fanatics and comic connoisseurs! As ever, we at SFcrowsnest are here to help you navigate the labyrinthine world of geekdom. Today’s topic? The upcoming Comic-Con International: San Diego, and IDW Publishing’s chock-full lineup of delights.
Picture this: You’re making your way to booth #2729. Why? You’ve heard whispers of IDW’s hidden treasures. But wait, what’s that you see? An overwhelming array of exclusive variant covers, a parade of comic creators ready to sign your prized possessions, and a horde of fellow fans, all just as excited (and bewildered) as you are.
Now, IDW’s schedule may read like a laundry list of ways to make fans hyperventilate, but fear not, intrepid reader. Here’s a handy guide to surviving the IDW whirlwind at Comic-Con without succumbing to comic shock.
On Thursday, they’re kicking things off with a Star Trek panel – it’s going to be bigger and bloodier than ever (no red shirts necessary). Then, we’ve got signing sessions with creators from Dungeons & Dragons, TMNT, and Star Trek, with a dash of Godzilla for added mayhem. Just another typical Thursday in the IDW universe.
Friday’s all about IDW’s future plans and a signing session for “Dark Spaces: Good Deeds.” Remember to take a breath, maybe grab some convention center grub. Trust us, you’ll need the energy.
As Saturday rolls around, prepare for Turtlemania! And if you’re more of a bibliophile, you can check out the IDW Artist’s Edition Panel – an art-lover’s dream come true. Not to forget, the signing sessions, including one with the creators of Cosmoknights and TMNT: The Last Ronin.
And finally, Sunday. Not just any Sunday, but Sonic the Hedgehog Sunday! Get ready for an adrenaline-fueled panel celebrating Sonic’s 900th adventure. Oh, and don’t miss the My Little Pony: 40th Anniversary signing if you fancy a throwback to more innocent, rainbow-filled days.
IDW at Comic-Con is like stepping into a comic book tornado – a swirling mass of panels, signings, and fellow fans. But, like any hero in a half-shell, Sonic speedster, or starship captain, with your SFcrowsnest guide in hand, you’re more than ready for the adventure. See you on the convention floor, comrades!
